[0002] Aircraft electrostatic discharge (ESD) devices are used to discharge and control static charges accumulated during aircraft flight. Effective discharge by ESD devices is essential for aircraft electrostatic protection and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) design. The placement of ESD devices on aircraft has long relied on engineering experience, typically involving multiple devices spaced 300 mm or more at the trailing edge of the wing. The aircraft's shape directly affects the overall static charge distribution and the electric field strength distribution at the device tips, thus influencing the ESD device's static charge discharge effectiveness. Existing aircraft ESD device layout design methods struggle to evaluate the static charge discharge effectiveness of multiple ESD devices on an aircraft. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a method for designing the layout of electrostatic dischargers for aircraft, which can achieve balanced discharge of multiple electrostatic dischargers or maximum discharge of deposited static electricity.
[0004] The technical solution adopted in this invention is an aircraft electrostatic discharger layout design method, comprising the following steps: Step 1: Calculate and obtain the total deposited electrostatic current of the aircraft; Step 2: Calculate the number of electrostatic dischargers that need to be installed on the aircraft based on the total deposited electrostatic current. Step 3: Conduct simulation of electrostatic distribution on the aircraft to determine the final electrostatic discharger placement area and number of areas; Step 4: Based on the number of electrostatic dischargers and the number of areas, formulate several preliminary layout schemes for the electrostatic dischargers of the entire machine; Step 5: Use the total discharge current I Q The maximum or balanced discharge of all electrostatic dischargers in the machine is used as the criterion to determine the layout design scheme of the electrostatic dischargers in the machine. Step 6: Evaluate the rationality of the overall electrostatic discharger layout scheme of the aircraft to obtain the final layout scheme of the overall electrostatic discharger of the aircraft.
[0005] The invention is further characterized by: Step 1 specifically involves calculating and obtaining the total deposited electrostatic current of the aircraft according to formula (1) or (2); I t = q p vc A eff (1); in,q p Stored charge of a single particle, unit: c / p; c Particle concentration per unit volume, unit: p / m 3 ; A eff The frontal surface area of the aircraft, in meters (m²). 2 ; v The speed of the aircraft, in m / s; I t =I c ×A eff ×ν / 600 (2); in, I c Charging current density, unit: μA / m 2 ν represents flight speed, in knots. A eff The frontal surface area of the aircraft, in meters (m²). 2 .
[0006] Step 2 specifically involves: based on the discharge index of a single electrostatic discharger. I q And the total static current deposited on the aircraft I t Calculate the number of electrostatic dischargers that need to be installed on the aircraft. N , N 1= I t / I q (3); N Take greater than N The smallest even number equal to 1.
[0007] Step 3 specifically involves: conducting an aircraft electrostatic distribution simulation.

The remaining areas represent the final ESD placement areas and the number of such areas. M .
[0008] Step 4 specifically involves: N One electrostatic discharger was assigned to M An area for scattering electrostatic dischargers, if N / MIf the value is greater than 2, then each electrostatic discharger placement area should preferentially place 2 electrostatic dischargers to form a variety of preliminary layout schemes for the entire machine's electrostatic dischargers.

I t aircraft steady-state electromotive force V Maximum discharge current of electrostatic discharger under steady-state potential of aircraft I Z According to the aircraft's steady-state electromotive force V and the maximum discharge current of the electrostatic discharger I Z The rationality of the overall electrostatic discharger (ESD) layout scheme of the aircraft was evaluated, and the final ESD layout scheme of the aircraft was obtained.
[0011] Step 6, specifically evaluating the rationality of the aircraft's overall electrostatic discharger layout, involves ensuring that the aircraft's steady-state electrostatic potential is met. V Less than or equal to 75kV , Maximum discharge current of electrostatic discharger I Z Less than or equal to k* I q If k is a correction coefficient and k is greater than 1, then the overall electrostatic discharger layout scheme of the aircraft is reasonable and will be used as the final layout scheme for the overall electrostatic dischargers of the aircraft; if V >75kV or I Z >k* I q Then select the other aircraft-wide electrostatic discharger layout scheme from step 5 and repeat step 6 until... V Less than or equal to 75kV I Z Less than or equal to k* I q This led to the final layout scheme for the electrostatic dischargers across the entire aircraft.

V Less than or equal to 75kV , Maximum discharge current of electrostatic discharger I Z Less than or equal to k* I q If k is a correction coefficient and k is greater than 1, then the overall electrostatic discharger layout scheme of the aircraft is reasonable and will be used as the final layout scheme for the overall electrostatic dischargers of the aircraft; if V >75kV or I Z >k* I q Then select the other aircraft-wide electrostatic discharger layout scheme from step 5 and repeat step 6 until... V Less than or equal to 75kV I Z Less than or equal to k* I q This led to the final layout scheme for the electrostatic dischargers across the entire aircraft.
